    Hmmm, I just bought a new phone... How about phone accessories? I lost my Motorola S9 BT headphones, I'd like a new set.

    I would put the money towards a Slingbox (since my DSL is now fast and I can handle the streaming due to the speed boost).

    Sorry now I want to narrow this down to one category electronics. What type of electronic device would you get for $100. I really want something new but dont know what to get so give me ideas thanks this can be anything from a mp3 to cell phone.

    With the rebate from the phone I bought on my second line I would use the $100 for a phone for myself.

    I would blow it on music, mp3s....or if I'm able to catch the Sirius portable player (it looks like a mp3 player) à la the Nexus (sp?) on sale, I would snap it up!

    I would buy a PS3 game and probably a new Blu-Ray movie and that pretty much would take care of the $100!!

    Not car parts? Well, then, I'm out. At present I have the devices I want... though I really like Gamer03's suggestion of a Slingbox.

    I would love to get a slingbox but I would want a data phone to go with this and so it is not going to happen soon.

    Well I used to have a 3g phone but honestly right now I am happy with just voice. So I think down the road I might get a data 3g phone but it would be a blackberry.

    My wife is talking about anniversary gifts and while we are no where near being able to using our NE2, she wants to get me a BlackBerry or a Palm.
